Re: [linux-audio-user] not quite so simple.... mandrake 9.0 +devfs help!!

weird.... very weird.... apps are still complaining of no soundcard, but this is output of ls -l /dev/dsp: [root@hamish alsa-driver-0.9.0rc5]# ls -l /dev/dsp lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 9 Dec 16 13:09 /dev/dsp -> /dev/dsp0 alias entries are still there in modules.conf too.... one thing i didnt do last night (because the soundcard got running without it) was uninstall the mandrake alsa rpms... i might do that... after all rc5 source should have everything i need there... it might be confusing the files.... thankx m~ D R Holsbeck wrote: > so what does ls -l /dev/dsp show you?
